PROJECT PURPOSE AND NEED NCRF , California Penal Code Section 6275 (SB 943 of 2007) authorized the conversion of the former woman's facility to a secure community reentry facility. The proposed NCRF would serve inmates from San Joaquin, Calaveras, and Amador Counties. The reentry facility would house adult male inmates during the last 6-12 months of their respective sentences prior to parole. The goal is to provide inmates a variety of special educational, vocational, and personal development programs to better prepare them for return to the community of their-last legal residence. t DEWITT NELSON CONVERSION M In August 2009, a three-judge district court composed of Judges Reinhardt, Karlton, and Henderson issued an opinion for the Coleman v. Schwarzenegger case that imposes a population cap on California's prisons. The court found that the cap is necessary to cure ' constitutional violations that have long existed with respect to the provision of medical and mental health care. The court found that the overcrowding in the prisons led to "chminogenic" conditions, which resulted in more crimes being committed by former prisoners and an increase in the recidivism rate. It also determined that, with adequate safeguards and improved rehabilitation and reentry programs, the state could ensure that the order would result in an increase in public safety.
